Are there homeowners rules or restrictions I should be aware of


Homeowners’ Associations (HOAs) commonly have rules and restrictions to maintain the neighborhood's appearance, property values, and sense of community. While each HOA is different, here are common rules you might encounter:

1. Exterior Changes & Maintenance

Paint Colors & Exterior Modifications: HOAs often regulate exterior paint colors, landscaping, fences, and architectural changes. You may need approval to repaint, add a deck, or install solar panels.

Landscaping: Many HOAs require regular lawn maintenance, specify acceptable plant types, or limit the placement of trees and shrubs.


2. Parking Restrictions

Vehicle Types: Some HOAs restrict where you can park certain vehicles like RVs, boats, and commercial trucks.

Street Parking: HOAs may limit or prohibit parking on the street, especially overnight.


3. Pet Restrictions

Pet Types & Sizes: Some HOAs have restrictions on the type, number, or size of pets. Certain breeds might be restricted, especially large or aggressive breeds.

Noise Control: Rules regarding barking dogs or pet waste are common.


4. Noise and Quiet Hours

HOAs often set "quiet hours" to prevent noise disturbances, usually in the late evening and early morning.


5. Holiday Decorations

Some HOAs regulate when you can display holiday decorations and how long they can stay up after a holiday has passed.


6. Short-Term Rentals

HOAs may restrict or prohibit short-term rentals like Airbnb or Vrbo to keep neighborhood turnover low.


7. Trash and Recycling

HOAs often have rules about trash bin placement and pickup schedules. Bins may need to be stored out of sight when not in use.


8. Amenity Use

Access to amenities like pools, gyms, or community centers may have rules or fees. There could be guest limitations and specified hours of operation.


9. Signage and Flags

Most HOAs have rules about the size and placement of flags, banners, or political signs.


HOA rules can vary greatly, so it’s best to review the specific governing documents (CC&Rs) for your neighborhood.
